ParticipantRG, I seriously cannot wait to say I told you so!
Neal will be back! Baelfire will be alive and well! I told you so!
Rumple did everything to ensure that. he gave Glinda the pendent to trap all of Zelena’s amazing magical powers in it so that he could use that same pendent to open a portal at Zelena’s death.Zelena chose her own destiny. she COULD have listened to Glinda and been good. she decided to be wicked, and the price for that is that she will be sacrificed for Neal’s chance at happiness.
when this finale ends and all of you will see how Neal is safe and happy, I will be KING!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh I just can’t WAIT to be king!

ParticipantThank you everyone for posting here and encouraging a positive exchange of ideas bout my favorite character, Neal, and ship, Swanfire. I have enjoyed the reading this thread so much. I may be over with this show tonight – I may even be over it less than half way in, but I will always remember this thread with happiness. You guys are wonderful!!! I love thinking in multiple directions and I love the humor. I may choose to let the show end for me at 3×11 and just let it be. At least I won’t be mad at the lost potential and message anymore, just sad. Love to you all!

We need Puck the Bison as the Big Billy Goat Gruff, kicking the trolls off the bridge.
Marty: I don’t have hope, and the reason has nothing to do with the story of CS or SF–but everything to do with the way the writers seem to be catering to fans left and right in the corners of the story. Mulan having feelings for Aurora, done just vaguely enough that maybe she was talking about Phillip, for example. Never mind that AURORA AND PHIL ARE TRUE LOVE! There are a good number of fans who are hoping Phil died as a monkey, so Aurora can be with Mulan. I’m all for groundbreaking stories, but why trample a true love couple to get there? Why make the genre “soap” rather than “fairy tale”?
The writers have said a few things that make me think this is not Emma and Henry’s fairytale, but Rumple, Regina and Hook’s, and Emma and Henry are simply the tools to give them their happy endings, rather than characters who are consistently written. So we have Henry who accepts Regina, rejects calling her a villain, even though that means he does forgive her killing people so long as they weren’t people he loved and knew. He would never have forgiven her if she’d helped to kill the Charmings or Emma. Perhaps even Archie’s death would have been too much, but once he found out it wasn’t Archie that died? No problems! So who cares about people in general, the right thing in general, for this show dismisses all that even in the character’s mind set who is supposed to most represent the heroic way of thought.
How can I admire this? It’s like the curtain has slowly slipped, and I’m staring at the conman and his show, and feeling quite disenchanted that this fairy tale isn’t a fairy tale at all. Whatever it is, soap with magical plot fix its, its not going to change.
I do think the writers always intended to have Hook be a romantic factor for Emma, in the same way they intended August to be that. They had Eion read Bonnie and Clyde with J.Mo—hardly the script to choose if you weren’t interested in having some chemistry and were from the start pursuing a brother/sister vibe. Eion reveals this in a video interview somewhere, so its out there on the internet. Yet Adam and Eddy claim after the fact it was always a brother/sister thing they wanted.
Beyond that though, I’m not sure what their intentions actually were. Did they intend for Emma to reciprocate? You can listen to the Tallahassee podcast and some others from around that time, if they don’t delete them, and they call Anton a kindred spirit, perhaps even more than Hook to Emma. Say what?! Remember, Hook didn’t trust Emma about Anton. How can a kindred spirit not be a kindred spirit with a kindred spirit!?Anyway, out of time, and I know a lot of what I’m saying I’ve said before.

But when I’m right (and I’m 99.9% sure that I will be) I won’t be rubbing it in your face.

Yes a pic of Puck is needed soon. Text, dear?
